	great quiz, as a US American living and working in Spain I enjoyed this a lot, I´d enjoy it if you expanded it. there were a few cities I didn´t know... Also when I tried typing Cote d´ivoire it didn´t accept, i don´t know why, I know it should have the hat on the o, but I dont´know how to type that (my computer is from the US but on Spain Spanish mode if you can help) Also, I think SADR (Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic) should be accepted for Western Sahara, GREAT JOB

	Interesting quiz, but I think a few of the cities are a bit too hard. Asking non-capital cities in Africa and Asia is asking a lot. It'd also be great if you could add more "Others". Maybe Falkland Islands, Northern Ireland, Tibet, Kurdistan, Palestine and Tasmania . . .

	@FishyInSpain: Looks like it was my mistake, I forgot to put in Cote d'Ivoire without the hat as an acceptable answer. I also added SADR as one. @TreehuggnCowgirl: I tried to only ask major cities; Guangzhou has seven million people in it, and Cape Town is South Africa's biggest tourist destination. I suppose Abidjan might be tough, but what quiz doesn't have tough answers? --- I've added five more to the "Other" category; it's hard to find good ones, because for most places the Spanish name is just the English name with a couple letters changed. For example, Palestine translates as "Palestina," and Tibet is "el Tibet." I think these are interesting, though.

	Great quiz! Even with Spanish being my native language, some of these were still hard. Thanks for including Algiers, it's the bane of my existence: Argel, Argelia = Algiers, Algeria is something that's been seared into my brain from so many times getting it wrong! @TreehuggnCowgirl: Well, that's the idea, I think, to make it more challenging. Or do you want all quizzes to be easy? ;)

	how about accepting "falklands" for "falkland islands"?

	maybe accept palestine for west bank - that's all i could think of

	Bielorrusia is misspelled (two r's, one s). Beijing has practically replaced Pekín on the press (and Myanmar is replacing Birmania, that was the name of Burma). I think the same happened in most languages: my Webster's dictionary of 1994 still gives the definition under Peking, and for Beijing only says "Pinyin spelling of Peking".

	@AHK: I’ll change that now. @ahh:Palestine is not acceptable because Cisjordania specifically refers to the West Bank, whereas Palestina would denote historical Palestine, or the modern-day territory consisting of the West Bank and the Gaza Strip. @dancastro: Thanks for the heads-up about Belarus; I’ll change that upon finishing this comment. I think I’ll keep the others, since as long as they’re still valid I think they are interesting to have; thanks on that count as well, though.

	I typed "Falklands" and "Falkland Islands," and neither were accepted.
